It means tdp_page_fault() handles the page fault with ignoring
the error code, It will not handle the page fault completely correctly,
and may causes endless page fault.


Please describe the fail scenario more accurately in the change log?

Can it happen now, or only with the next patches in the series?

@@ -3521,7 +3521,8 @@ static int handle_ept_violation(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)

  	gpa = vmcs_read64(GUEST_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS);
  	trace_kvm_page_fault(gpa, exit_qualification);

  }


Symbolic constant please.

I don't really like how kvm_mmu_page_fault() is overloaded, for !tdp the parameter is a gva, for tdp it is a gpa. We need to break it into two (but later).
